2 Chronicles 2:8-10
1599 Geneva Bible
8 Send me also cedar trees, fir trees and [a][b]Algummim trees from Lebanon: for I know that thy servants can skill to hew timber in Lebanon: and behold, my servants shall be with thine,
9 That they may prepare me timber in abundance: for the house which I do build, is great and wonderful.
10 And behold, I will give to thy servants the cutters and the hewers of timber twenty thousand [c]measures of beaten wheat, and twenty thousand measures of barley, and twenty thousand baths of wine, and twenty [d]thousand baths of oil.
